RAILROAD MEETING.

Representatives OF Putnam, Adair,
Shelby and the western part OF
this county will come to Hannibal
to meet the Short Line officials
at their annual meeting on the Sth
of March. These representatives
are leading men of several locali-
ties from which they hail and are
in earnest about the construction
of the extention of the Short Line
road through the counties stated
and ON farther west. Mr.. Il. FL.
Bonfoey, of Unionville, is familiar
with the topography of the country
through which the route is COLI
templated and is prepared to
present its advantages to the pres
ident, and general manager,
Messrs. J. [. Blair and e. G.. Case.
This line of road. as an exten-
sion of the Short Line, would give
facilities for traffic far beyond
most of the roads in this section
of the country. The coal fields
through which it would,traverse are
inexhaustible, and would furnish
the very best of coal at easy egress;
timber of superior quality is
most abundant and most of the
land highly productive. The
grades would not be heavy insur-
ling the construction of the road
at comparative cheapness. There
is strong reason to believe that
this road must be built in the
. near future to supply the lone
felt want of territory through
) which it runs, and to give Quite
to the increasing traffic of the shor
| line. Hannibal people would b
: largely beniitted by it. It woul'
give opportunity toa large seop
| of country to visit Us and b
q instrumental in enchancing on
4 trade. Representative citizen
5 of this city should be selected t
g received the men, and togethe
+ with them counsel with the official
6 of the railroad in order, if possibl,
n to start a project which, if
succeeds, Will add much to th
material wealth of Hannibal

A BEAUTIFUL STATE.

An enthusiastic exchange says:
'AIissouri Is full of beautiful wo-
men and many of her men are not
otherwise than handsome, and the
state is full Of beautiful things.
Nature appears to better advant-
age in Missouri. She shines in
sunhowers, in the prairies, the
timber, the bluffs and in her val
leys, hills, ravines, mounds and
rivers. Natures beauty is here
supported by all the wiles Of art,
and the beauties of Missouri are
seen in her towns and cities and
homes and cultivated fields; III
her massive walls of corn, waving
masses of wheatin their season. In
her liberal ideas, her progressive
spirit, her undaunted enterprise
her towering majesty as state il
this Union, 100, lies this great com
mon wealth's beauty. True beaut!
lies in its force to make good i'm
preston. 1t is not a charm, it i
not beauty. Then, too, after al
the truly handsome qualities lie il

The Century for March.

Among the features which con-
tribute to the individuality Of the
March CENTURY are first Of all, a
complete short story by Mr.. Cable
entitled ''Grade Pointe,' % being the
second OF his stories Of the Aca-
dia country of Louisiana. The
illustrations of this story, by Mr..
Kemble, are from studies from
life in that region, whittier
he was commissioned to go by The
CENTURY for this purpose. Mr.
Stockton's 'Hundredth Man"
reaches its fifth part.
A second feature of a popular
character is an article on Compos-
ite Photography, by Professor
I. Stoddard, of Smith College, ac-
companied by eight examples of
weirdly facinating art; an article
which is likely to direct into this
channel some of the talent which
is now occupied with amateur pho
Biography. Mr.. Stoddard has car
ried out Prof. Francis Cations
idea to useful extent, and makes
clear to the reader the methods by
which his results are accomplish
ed. Other articles of a piquani
interest in the field of photogra.
phy are in preparation for the
Magazine.

Oh, the ciashing and the changing OF these

What of strife and what of heartaches every |

| Through the balmy air of day, calling people
to the fray,
| Flom their molten sordid notes, out OF tune,
What q mournful ditty floats
To the Watchdog, as he listens, causing MN

Oh from those sepulchral cells

Of the bells, bells, bells, bells, bells, bells,

To the jarrng and the jangling OF the bells.

Weather Predictions for March '87

Weather Predictions for March '97
March will be colder than usual
for the first three weeks, after
which it will be warmer. 1t will
come in like lion in the Far
North and so remain there foI
most of the month, moderatlng
towards the last of the month.
While the last of the month will
be the warmest, yet it will proba-
bly, be the stormiest, as much of
the precipitation of the month
will be after the Goth. The equi-
noctial storm will be quite severe,
continuing for several days after
the Goth and viii furnish consid-
cradle rain; we do not expect much
excess of rain in March in the
Western states, though there
will doubtless be excesses in
spots.
As will be seen there will be
wide fluctuations in temperature
While the warmest weather will
be near the end of the month, yet
there will be other mild spells
in a large part of the country, one
of which will be about the 9th tc
10th, though this will not extent
to the extreme north. We thinl
the large amount of thawing ant
freezing in March will kill mucl
: of the winter wheat which manag
/ ed to live through February.
y In the Northern states it is no
likely that the cold weather vii
be warm enough to SOW oats an
e spring wheat before the middle c
/ March, and not then except in tn
d southern portion of said state:
but after the Goth of March war;
. weather will rapidly extend nortl
6 ward.
; Spring grain not corn shoul
is be sown early in March as tt
W ground can be prepared, but
the more northern states GA
'e might be touched with spri1
d frosts later. In the latitude
g Kansas we do not think late spril
: frosts will hurt oats sown

TIE ATCHIS0N STILL UNSETTLED

Recent dispatches state that the
Atchison Company has given up
the idea of crossing the Mississlp-
pi at Fort Madison, and will cross
at Keokuk. These dispatches
have been followed by rumors that
orders have been received along
the line through Missouri to cease
work. It's now thought that the
line Will be entirely changed and
Will miss Adair county altogether,
the route passing through Knox
City on the Q. NJ. & P. Ry., and
Atlanta on the Wabash. Wheth-
er there is any real foundation fol
these rumors remains to be seen
but it is evident to all that tht
Atchison is acting in aqueer man
ner, for company that really in
tends to build.
